Opinions on the offense not changing much may be right but wrong also

With Steve Ensminger as new offensive coordinator, I've read that there isn't enough time to change the offensive look. I've read on here that there may be a few differences but not an overhaul so to say. Today I was reading an article and it had a quote from Etling that help that point but also brought up the fact it still could look different.

If his play book was indeed that deep, then hopefully there is some life in there they can use. Also, if they win out using plays from said playbook how bad does that make Cam and Les look/feel knowing the winning formula was there all along?

The important move was with Ensminger replacing Cameron. Etling said the Cameron LSU playbook is deep enough where Ensminger won’t have to introduce new plays. He’ll simply have to pick and choose plays and packages more to his and Orgeron’s liking. Look for a little less fullback and maybe more receivers.

I remember in 2014 when Harris showed flashes of brilliance early in his freshman year when we ran a good bit of spread looks against NMSU and MSU. If that's in the book, use it now!

If Ensminger can choose a play based on what is actually happening in the game and get that play in before the playclock expires, we are already going to be infinitely better.

You've got a point there.

Bump to echo what was said today in coach o's presser...well now you have two people who have said the same thing..let's see how deep that play book is and what gems we can pull out.

Apparently it was so deep that it took 2.5 - 3 years to learn it.....

Trying to go over every play in the playbook in practice but only using 20 of them..no wonder they couldn't get the play in before the play clock ran out..flipping the pages in the book to try and decide which one to use today..

it was so deep that 93% of it remained a secret

I've been saying this for years and a lot this year. LSU doesn't need an overhaul they simply need to stick with what's working and build a rhythm with the offense. It really isn't that hard. When LF busts a 30 yard run down their throat you don't go immediately to PA. Change your formation like you will hit them with PA and run some RPO play or a real toss play. Line up with and without the FB and run and pass from these formations. It's really not that hard and they made it look impossible. It was so funny to me. That formation where the WR would go in motion and stop on the end they would run out of this every single time unless it was long yardage. Use the old Miami playbook and LSU would dominate people. LF is the perfect back for this style of offense. It's the simple things Cam and Les weren't very good at. Idk why??

Less FBack isn't a good thing

Why not?? If you motion that FB out or come out with an extra WR it spreads the defense out and PA works better also. It gives the defense a different look also. The linebackers can't just pile up at the LOS. LF needs to make on man miss and he busts it for 6 or 7 yards maybe more. Like I said PA works better also because if that backer bites he has further to run back and leaves whom ever more open.

You don't have to have a FB to run the football. Single back sets work everywhere. You can do both even with the FB in there you can notion that FB and still run or PA from it. If you hit them for 5 to 7 yards at a time they will bite and leave someone wide open. We need to run more all vertical seems down field when not in PA the QB can see who will be open and where especially against zone. It fools the defense also. Lots of missed communication on these routes that go for big big yards.
